Lindsey Burson of Roanoke, IN, will present a senior exhibit from April 25 to May 8 in the Robert E. Wilson Gallery in the Merillat Centre for the Arts.

Burson is a senior Studio Art major at Huntington University.

Burson has produced two comprehensive series of oil paintings. She works from her own personal and emotional experiences. Her first series depicts representations of inner conflict. The second series addresses the feelings of warmth, love, contentment and support. Burson explains that she finds art therapeutic — a way to process her emotions and experiences.

The artists will be present and discuss their work at the artist reception on from 6-7:30 p.m. May 3.

The Wilson Gallery is open weekdays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., before and after all Merillat Centre for the Arts performances and by appointment. The gallery is free and open to the public.
